Zoe Saldana and Selena Gomez made a stunning stylish appearance at the Netflix Awards Brunch during the BFI London Film Festival on Sunday.

The event, held at 180 The Strand, saw both Saldana and Gomez clothed in style to meet the expectations of many.

46-year-old Saldana, who is best known for her role in Avatar, wowed in a strapless grey midi dress that showcased her incredible figure, and she completed her appearance on the day with a pair of black stilettos, a simple gold necklace, and an elegant up-do.

On the other hand, 32-year-old Gomez of ‘Only Murders in the Building’, opted for a chic wool navy checked minidress with eye-catching gold buttons all over it, and paired it with black knee-high leather boots and black opaque tights, as per a Daily Mail report.

Saldana and Gomez were all smiles as they posed together before the brunch, and later on at the event, the former was spotted catching up with actress Danielle Deadwyler, who wore a striking red checked blazer and maxi skirt.

The brunch came after their appearance at the ‘Emilia Perez’ screening at the festival on Saturday.

Gomez, who plays Jesse in the musical crime comedy, wore an elegant black gown adorned with floral sequin details, and completed her look with a sequined blazer-style cape featuring bold shoulder pads, along with diamond earrings, rings, and a glossy makeup palette.

Saldana, who on the other hand is known as lawyer Rita Moro Castro in the film, looked equally fashionable in a sheer black shirt with a statement bow, paired with smart grey trousers and patent heels. Her sleek up-do and bold red lip added a polished touch to the ensemble.

‘Emilia Perez’ first premiered at the 77th Cannes Film Festival in May, where it competed for the Palme d’Or.

The film went on to win the Jury Prize, as its female ensemble earned the Best Actress award.

It was released in French theaters back in August and is set to debut on Netflix in the U.S. and U.K. on November 13.

The musical crime comedy has also been selected as France’s entry for Best International Feature Film at the upcoming 97th Academy Awards.

There is already Oscar buzz surrounding Zoe Saldana and Selena Gomez, and Variety reports that both actresses will pursue nominations in the supporting actress category, while co-star Karla Sofía Gascón will aim for a lead actress nomination.
